Purchase Obligations and Leases
 
At December 31, 2008, we had purchase obligations of $42.8 million representing commitments for materials, services and equipment that had not been received as of December 31, 2008, primarily for construction and maintenance projects for which we have an executed contract. The majority of the items relate to materials and equipment that have long production lead times that are expected to be paid for in 2009.
 
We have operating leases for office space, equipment and storage facilities. We recognize expenses relating to our operating lease obligations on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. We recognized rent expense of $0.6 million, $1.0 million and $0.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively, recorded in general and administrative and operation and maintenance expenses. These amounts and the amounts in the table below do not include any expense or payments to be made under the METC Easement Agreement described below under “Other Commitments — METC — Amended and Restated Easement Agreement with Consumers Energy.”
